We congratulate you on Defender of the Fatherland Day!

Defender of the Fatherland Day is traditionally celebrated in Russia on February 23rd. How did this holiday originate?

This date was first celebrated in 1919. However, the decree officially establishing the holiday was issued only in 1922. The Presidium of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee approved February 23 as "Red Army Day" exactly 100 years ago!

Although the Red Army faded into oblivion with the collapse of the USSR, the holiday hasn't disappeared. On February 23, we still congratulate all the country's defenders during times of adversity, but not only that—this significant day has become "All Men's Day" for post-Soviet countries.

Today, the GORELTEX Plant congratulates all past, present, and future defenders of our Fatherland! We wish you, dear friends, success in all your endeavors and endeavors. In all situations, maintain a clear head and confidence in your abilities. Resolutely move toward your goals, courageously overcoming all obstacles. Take care of your loved ones and be their reliable support!

Happy holiday, fighters!

Please note that February 23 is a day off in the Russian Federation.
